Claim Your Artist Profile

How do I claim my artist profile?

To claim your artist profile, follow these steps:

  1. Log in at tidal.com.
  2. Search for your artist name.
  3. Tap or click your artist profile.
  4. Select the option to claim the profile.
  5. Choose how you’d like to verify your identity.

You can verify your identity through a distributor. DistroKid, CD Baby, and TuneCore are currently supported. This is the fastest option and usually provides immediate approval and access.

You can also choose manual verification. Manual requests are reviewed by our team and can take up to eight weeks to process.

Once approved, your profile will be officially claimed.

I already claimed my profile in Tidal Artist Home. Do I need to do it again?

No. Your profile remains claimed and tied to your Tidal account.

To manage it, log in at tidal.com and click your Profile icon in the top-right corner on mobile or the top-left corner on web or desktop.

Can I submit more than one claim for the same profile?

No. If there is already an active claim under review for a profile, new claims will be temporarily disabled until the current request is resolved.

You can only claim one profile per Tidal account.

Why don’t I see an option to claim a profile?

The option to claim a profile may be unavailable for one of the following reasons:

  • There is already an active claim under review, which temporarily disables new requests.
  • The profile is restricted to help prevent unauthorized claims.
  • The profile has already been successfully claimed by someone else.

If you encounter this issue, contact Tidal Artist Support, and we’ll be happy to help.

What does it mean to merge artist profiles?

Merging profiles is used when there is more than one artist page on Tidal for the same artist or project.

A merge combines your music under one main profile so everything appears in a single place.

What happens after profiles are merged?

  • Your music will be combined under one artist profile.
  • Only one profile will remain active.
  • Duplicate profiles will be closed.

Will my followers transfer when profiles are merged?

For now, followers are tied to each profile. When profiles are merged, only your main profile remains active. Followers from closed profiles will not transfer.

Your main profile becomes the single place for your audience to find you and grow organically.

Will my artist name change when I claim or merge a profile?

In some cases, yes. If the name on your profile does not match the name provided by your distributor, your profile name will be updated to match the distributor’s records.

This ensures your profile reflects the official artist name associated with your releases.

This can apply when claiming, moving content, or merging profiles. It may include formatting updates such as capitalization and special characters.

How do I report incorrect artist information?

If you notice incorrect artist information, releases on the wrong artist page, duplicate artist profiles, or other catalog issues, you can report them directly in the Tidal web player or desktop app.

Open the artist profile, album, or track related to the issue. Select Report, then choose the option that best describes the issue.

The available reporting options may vary depending on whether you start from an artist profile, album, or track.

How do I move an album or track to my artist profile?

If an album or track appears on the wrong artist profile, submit a report from the artist profile where the content currently appears.

Select Report, then choose the option that best matches your request.

How long does it take for changes to appear?

Once your report has been reviewed and approved, updates for artists with claimed profiles may take up to 24 hours to appear in the app.

Can I report issues from the mobile app?

Not yet. Content reporting is currently available only in the Tidal web player and desktop app.

What types of issues can I report?

You can report a variety of catalog issues, including:

  • Releases on the wrong artist profile
  • Profile merge requests
  • Profile split requests
